Former Paladin Frank Selvy, former No. 1 overall NBA Draft pick added:
Of course, Selvy famously scored 100 points in a game in 1954 ... which remains a single-game record to this day.
He says Pegues' game-winner brought back memories of his historic night.
"It reminded me of my 100-point shot when I made it from midcourt with time running out, with a couple people guarding me. I threw it up from midcourt, and it went in for the 100 points."
Selvy had a ton of praise for Paladins coach Bob Richey ... saying, "He knows more about basketball than any coach I’ve ever seen. The formations and the executions of plays and everything, great guy."
Selvy says he hasn't spoken to the team ... but if he had the chance??
"I would just tell them how proud I was of them and keep it going."
As for Furman's matchup against San Diego State in the second round ... Frank thinks the Paladins have a legitimate shot at winning -- and his wife/Paladins superfan, Barbara, is guaranteeing a victory!!

Greatest win !!!!!!!!!! We can keep it going. .
Mentioned two things - we needed to hit FTs. We did by game end. We could win but wouldn’t speed uva up. We didn’t. Final 58-57.
on to sdsu. They are very good - long and athletic .. but we can win
